2024 Map of Frenchtown

About this map

Frenchtown sits at the base of the Reservation Divide in Missoula County, where the developed valley floor meets the rising timber of the Lolo National Forest. This modern record of the area shows a landscape defined by water management and mountain drainage, notably through the Frenchtown Irrigation District Ditch and the winding course of Mill Creek. The settlement pattern follows the historic corridor of Old Hwy 10 W and Mullan Rd, reflecting the community's growth along the old military and transit routes. Local history is anchored by the Saint John the Baptist Catholic Cem, while the northern portion of the map is dominated by steep drainage basins such as Lion Gulch, Cottonwood Gulch, and Blind Gulch, eventually leading to the high point at Charity Peak.
